I like Halloween
All the ghouls and the goblins!
I am not a'scared!
I like dressing up
and being a hobo beatnik!
What is that, you say!
It was long ago.
I was twelve and just too old.
I felt out of place.
But now I'm gramma
and I get to start again!
Bringing out the orange...
The pumkins galore,
the kiddie costumes delight;
grandkids at the door!
G'Dog is a Knight.
His armour a shiny glow;
his smile so bright!
While little Sydney,
barely old enough to know,
wears pumpkin proudly...
upon her tiny onesie!
Don't come to my door
If you're driving and voting!
Grabbing all you can!
That's just obnoxious!
And you know who you all are!
Looking like you care.
Don't let me find you
teepeeing my house and trees!
A spell I will cast!
And don't waste the eggs!
A twisted frog you will be.
A cackle is heard.
Have a Happy and Safe Halloweenie!!!

I was a hobo.
Before they were called homeless.
I was in sixth grade.

Mary's right. You got mom's sweet genes. I got her bad ones and dad's bad ones too. But bad plus bad = good, doesn't it? Two negatives equal a positive? I'm try'n. ;-)
you did not make one boo boo
I am proud of you
How's that? I think the Japanese versions are supposed to speak first to a season and then something else so I've got to brush up on this.
I'm now convinced I have Irish Limmericks in my genes and an acquired taste for Shakespearean sonnets because I feel like I'm stepping on cracks trying to read Haikus. You're good, Cath!!
So,
There once was a girl from the Butte
Who liked to holler and hoot.
When from the top of the mountain
She fell into a fountain
And scraped her knee and said "shoot."
5 - 7 - 5
Simple as pie!
Example for my Jo jo:
Sister number two
Though she may seem far away
is so very loved!
